Are we all getting side tracked with the us dollar? What I mean is the AUD is actually doing quite well against the British pound as well. I've noticed a few things are actually cheaper coming from the uk.

Hey gang, sorry to bring up an old thread but thought this might be worth mentioning as some time as passed and a few of us are itching to take advantage of the strong AUD.
We only need 5 more people to make this happen. It's a considerably cheap mod and we really need to keep track of how much boost we're running! http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showt...&highlight=RHD |

I've had good results from BM Miniparts (UK based) also.

I'm about to order the M3 front swaybar, any advice on other small parts to get to improve handling? Bushes etc? I'm a slight noob when it comes to suspension.

Guys, don't forget that the downpipes won't fit if you're buying them from the States. They need to be RHD downpipes for our cars. Andrew from Southern BM had issues trying to install LHD downpipes during the early 135i days...

That's not correct. I installed AR Design downpipes and they fit just fine.

You have to specifically ask for a RHD version, the AR Design ones come in RHD.

It's a great time to buy wheels. I bought myself some of these from TireRack a few weeks back when the dollar was only at US92¢. I should have held my nerve!
